Basabe and Diaz way too high. Can't wait to see Burger in action.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 07:27 PM) Who is interested in Kahnle? Rockies would like him back after bullpen blew an 8 run lead in last 4 innings last night.

QUOTE (GermanSock @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 05:15 PM) I think that he has already played his last baseball game. Looks like no team will draft him and I don't think he can go back to college. Not true. He is returning to Oregon State next season. His Coach and the University President are behind him -- publicly. As of now, he will be part of the team next year. None of knows what he did or didn't do 6 years ago, and I'm not so sure that this is doing any good for anyone other than the so called journalist who broke the story. No one knows who tipped him off. I doubt if it was the victim's family

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 09:25 AM) And as much as people want to question or allocate accountability to Kenny or Rick for certain moves over the last few years, they actually appear to be forming a great team. Rick is a more patient and effective negotiator, whereas Kenny is able to spend his time evaluating talent. In these roles, I feel as though the two of them form a stronger front office than we've had since perhaps the late 80's/early 90's. Don't forget that the duo of RickKenny got us a broken down yet expensive James Shields for great prospect Tatis, Jr, just as team was about to embark on a rebuild. It never computed.

QUOTE (reiks12 @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 05:18 PM) Luis Robert must be absolutely drained after those 6 atbats hr had over the last week or so Bring him along verrrry slowly. Saving him for the 2018-19 DSL seasons.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jun 9, 2017 -> 02:43 AM) If something crazy happens and Haseley, Beck, and Kendall are all there for the Sox at #11, this forum will be torn to shreds with 2nd guessing. I kind of hope, for all our sanity, that only one of them makes it to #11 and we can all breathe when we know we got the only one possible.' Then again, instant fear of "omg, what if they don't take him! What if they pass on him for Burger!" or similar could certainly crop up. Either way, I took the day off work on Monday and I am very exiting to be sitting my happy ass on there website with the TV and twitter going to track all the draft picks. Draft isn't until 7 PM.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 7, 2017 -> 06:43 PM) Weak 1-0 swing on a slider by Anderson. Definitely regressed mentally this year Caused by new contract? A year too soon?

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 7, 2017 -> 09:37 AM) No way it hit a catwalk, I thought they were saying it may have hit a piece like a wire holding up a catwalk. So weird. Get a real stadium. What city?

Faria is listed as Tampa's # 9 prospect. 58 innings, 84 strikeouts, 2.04 ERA at Durham.

When does Robert play?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 09:20 PM) At least he didn't walk him. Kahnle's mentally so much stronger than last year, where he was more reminiscent of Miguel Cleto. Barely missed there for strike 3. On the all time BAD team. Seems like he had two stints with Sox, can't remember which was worse.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 07:53 PM) Funny thing is he's probably a better CF than Leury, and Leury is a better SS than Anderson Ironic, but true.

Renteria should pull Leury right now, in mid inning. Two boners in one game. The lazy effort in first inning cost a run.

Ryan Raburn brought up to Nats roster. Wirth to DL.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 3, 2017 -> 06:51 PM) No because he might go right down again after this debacle Goldberg's ERA will improve next week.

QUOTE (budgie23 @ Jun 2, 2017 -> 09:29 PM) If Q can pitch well the next 2 months, I think he will get traded to the Brewers - deal built around Brinson. Why would the Brewers give up Top Rated Brinson for Q?

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 1, 2017 -> 09:00 AM) It was good that Frazier hit a bomb off of Sale, and you know Sale will vouch for him as well. It is a virtual certainty in my mind that he ends up with Boston. Is he better than Sandoval and/or Marrero?

There would be more if they slid head first like Trout.

Geez, he reads like a book end to Luis Robert.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 30, 2017 -> 09:24 PM) Jennings is so bad this year. He has nothing on his pitches Jennings looks like a left handed version of 2016 Matt Albers.

This loss is on Renteria.

He belongs in the NL.

QUOTE (winninguglyin83 @ May 29, 2017 -> 08:52 PM) Yaz held his hands high. Ask Hawk. Only when very young.

QUOTE (NCsoxfan @ May 29, 2017 -> 02:34 PM) Anyone have any thoughts on mike Morrison at Kannapolis? Drafted last year and played on Coastal Carolina's NCAA title team. This year out of the bullpen he's sporting a 0.00 ERA in 25 innings. Not good enough. 4 Hits, 34 K's, .36 WHIP.
